First Things First invests in proven programs and innovative strategies that help prepare children for success in school and later in life. This Strategy Toolkit provides detailed information on all First Things First strategies currently implemented through regional and state program funding and partnerships.

Intended Use

The Strategy Toolkit is intended to support FTF regional partnership councils, the statewide Board, grant partners and the many other early childhood system partners in strategic planning, developing and implementing programs, and other collaborative efforts to produce measurable outcomes for young children in Arizona.

All documents included in the toolkit are for State Fiscal Year 2019. Current grant partners can find documents for State Fiscal Year 2018 and previous State Fiscal Years by going to our Partner Grant Management System (PGMS). If you are not a grant partner and are looking for information on our strategies as it relates to State Fiscal Year 2018 or previous state fiscal years, please contact Veronica Lucas at vlucas@firstthingsfirst.org.
